Darwin Nunez’s struggles during the business end of the 2023/24 season for Liverpool were well-documented as he went on a lengthy goalscoring drought and eventually lost his starting place.
Meanwhile, with Arne Slot also succeeding Jurgen Klopp in the Reds dugout, his future has been the subject of increased speculation as a result, even though it has been reported that the Dutchman wishes to retain the striker’s services. Nunez has won eight caps since the start of last season, starting in attack on each occasion. Uruguay have won six and lost just one of those matches, with the forward registering nine goals from his last six outings and a further three assists across the entirety of that run.
But the Nunez of Uruguay is a completely different beast to the raw inconsistent animal seen at Liverpool. He’s confident, he’s happy and has picked up the mantle of Uruguay’s main man from Reds icon Luis Suarez. Of his volley, he said: “I didn’t expect it. I thought Maxi Araujo headed it, but in the end luckily it stayed there. I didn’t think and said ‘Here I hit it’.”
"Since Darwin was in Penarol I had been talking to him, through someone else,” he told old AUF TV, quoted by ESPN. “There was a game in which he scored three goals that caught my attention.
